Hello,

I am a kubuntu contributor, we develop userconfig, a kcmodule for users
and groups configuration. Basically, It has almost the same features than kuser,
except it's graphically integrated into systemsettings and no longer runs as 
root (not official yet
but I write a patch which works like a charm). Since kuser is not maintained 
anymore and the kdeadmin maintainer connot be contacted, I thought it was a 
good idea to send an email here.
I have also contacted each kdeadmin authors (of each subproject). I propose to 
move userconfig in kdeadmin as an alternative of kuser.

userconfig is written in python, see 
https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members/guidance/userconfig-kde4
for more details.

would you be interested ?

Does it allow for RFC 2307 based LDAP users? Loosing that feature of KUser 
would be a downside for me, as UNIX is far more than local shadow users.

There is a LDAP backend, still experimental but we plan to finish it for oneiric (the next ubuntu release). We also plan to write a kauth helper (in c++ since it's not possible yet in python).
Don't worry it will have the same features than kuser ;)
